Manchester United forward http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dimitar-Berbatov-c11254 picks up injury – Premier League Update
Manchester United forward and Bulgarian international, Dimitar Berbatov has gone on to pick up an ankle injury, while on tour of USA with the club.
The injury seems to be a partially serious one, as the forward is now set to undergo a series of fitness tests, to help determine if he can participate with United, during the course of the rest of their tour.
Berbatov was caught limping out of United’s training session in Portland this past Monday and was not part of the team that went on to destroy the Seattle Sounders by seven goals to nil, this past Wednesday.
At the moment no real concerns have been shown by the manager, or the player regarding the situation, which could potentially mean that the knock isn’t as bad as everyone is assuming it to be.
Nonetheless, this injury to the thirty year old could prove to be a thorn in his side, over the course of the coming weeks. Berbatov has already fallen out of favour at the club and at the same time, with Javier Hernandez picking up his form, while most
of the team’s younger strikers make their way back to the club, it seems like his first-team options might just become a little limited.
The extent of the player’s injury is yet to be reported, but it seems like he will undergo a late medical on Saturday, prior to United facing off against the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chicago-Fire-c38795.
From the looks of things, Berbatov’s career seems to be falling rather fast at United. The player went on to sit out the Red Devils biggest game of the season, which was UEFA Champions League final clash against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 this season and ever since then,
he has been rumoured to be on his way out of the team. Now, having picked up this injury, it seems fairly obvious that old age is starting to catch up with the player and his body just can’t keep up with the fast paced life of a footballer.
In recent weeks, it was believed that Berbatov would be edging towards a move out of the club, with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 looking to be the most likeliest of destinations. However, since then, there has been no real development on that front, mainly because the striker
himself stated that he wishes to fight for his spot at the club.
Despite those words being rather admiral on the player’s part, he needs to come to terms with the fact that perhaps there just isn’t a future for him at the club and start looking elsewhere for alternative options.
